Hi Volodya,

It solves the directory creation problem.

However, the structure that is created is not yet totally correct (was
not in the past either).

In the gui/builddir directory, I expected to see a www directory and a
www/yui subdirectory (hence the "install www" and "install www/yui"
targets with <location>builddir requirement).

gui/builddir/
    index.html
    menu/
      assets/
         menu.css
      menu.js
    yahoo/
      yahoo.js

In the root builddir directory, only the index.html is copied. If I add
a "<install-dependencies>on" requirement in the install target of the
Jamroot, it copies the gui/builddir directory but also, all the files of
yui, forgetting the directory structure.

Thanks,

Olivier
